MasterLink Help!

It looked like swapping out my original 4 gig hard drive would be something easy to do and it was. But it didn't like my MasterLink OS disk that I made following the directions on the Alesis site. Then it said Fatal Error, CD Error 277. Then HDCD to Reset, CD Reset Failure. I took the new hard drive...

Ampex ART800

Someone I know was given one of these that was stored in a barn in New Mexico for the past 30 to 40 years. There's no rust anywhere, and it has what looks to be 2 mic pres up on top. There's no tapes or reels with it. All I've found through google is that it's a 1/4" 2 track mastering deck. There's ...

For Postage: Fostex D-80 Manual

I've got a Fostex D-80 manual. I should be able to ship it to you (in the US lower 48 anyway) for $5. Let me know if you need it. Either I get it to someone who can use it, or it goes in the trash.

Oktava MC-012 Repair

When I plugged in one of my Oktava MC-012s this weekend, I got a tremendous hum/static noise. Moving the mic cable where it plugs into the mic would make it go away, but the cable has to be in exactly the right place for it to work. It's definitely the mic, not the cable. Is it just a loose solder j...

Another book along the lines of Effortless Mastery is The Inner Gamer of Music taking the inner game theories and applying them to performance of music. Lots of exercises for letting the music come through without the inner dialog that can get in the way of it. Not about any one instrument. Another ...

I'm really liking a NOS Sylvania JAN 12AT7 in the EH12ay7 as well. I bought some 12au7 tubes, but there's just something more pleasing about the 12at7 than any of the 12au7s. I did find the differences in 12au7s very subtle, but the 12at7 was a very distinct difference. More articulate I think.

Sorry, the power light went out with the KSM 32. It stayed on with the MC-012. There was one GE 12AU7 tube was really outstanding with the KSM 32 recording my mandolin. It was a real ear opener. There was a richness and dimensional quality to the sound I hadn't heard with the SX202. I think by that ...

I just got my EH12ay7 last night and tried it out with a few mics. With a MC-012 the power light stayed on and I had plenty of gain. I've never heard this mic sound so good. With the KSM 32, the power light went on and the gain was lower but was still usable. I tried an external phantom power supply...
